First of all I would like to introduce myself - I am Minijus, 21 year old economics and politics student and web developer from Lithuania. I was reading HN for a while but never thought about registering, till now. I have been developing websites for past 6 years, still I am far from developer I would like to be. But I have good understanding of all major technologies used for web development. Moreover, I am able to make frontend designs, PHP, have worked with WP, Joomla, Prestashop, Opencart (mainly developing online commerce systems, templating and fixing). A year ago I have discovered twitter bootstrap, fall in love and till then I am using it. This would be short story about me.

This summer is likely to be very special for me and my girlfriend since we are going to USA with Work and Travel program. However, all the listed jobs are mainly for housekeeping. I do not state that housekeeping is disgraceful job, all the jobs are worthy to be respected. But what I would like to ask you guys is - how could I find contract for summer job as web developer/frontend designer in States. I am really looking forward to achieve this, since this would allow to travel more and experience more after the jobs are done. I fully understand that this story might sound quite risky for my employer, so I would gladly agree to start developing some projects immediately. Furthermore, I would agree to learn some new technologies until the summer if this would be the question whether I get job or no.

I will appreciate all advice and comments you will provide.
